Default building human powered generator for boat

Pedal Radio ( do a google search - ) showed that human power was sufficient
for good radio communication over long distances several decades ago. I
can't see why anyone would want to do it this way now, given the
availability of solar power and more efficient electronics, but if pedal
power is all you can get, why not?
